Either I’m commenting because my life and others lives are affected by AI, it is actually a big deal. It will change our lives. It will never go away. And that’s why I comment on it.

Either of them may well have been a paid commentator, but both also could hold a sincere belief in the points they were making.

False dichotomy.
